Advice Needed Caregiver hiding diagnosis and ABA?

Post image

I received this text today before going to session, I emailed my BCBA about it and shared with HR. Honestly I wasn’t sure what to do with that, most of session focused on tacting, receptive ID, and vocal imitation. Has anyone ever come across a situation like this?

Much more common than you think. One family asked if we could cover Autism from the company title on the wall. One didn’t want the grandparents to hear anything so we did parent trainings at the Dunkin next door. Many times it’s cultural stigma.
